December 19, 2023:  A lot has happened since Threads launched at the beginning of July 2023.  Twitter became X and went total conspiracy-comfortable as a platform.  In the last week noted and convicted conspiracist Alex Jones has been welcomed back on the platform.  For many advertisers and major content accounts that was it, and they have begun to disengage from X.

After a big start with a 100 million signups, Threads found it's daily user numbers declining.  However, during the last four months the Threads team has added a lot of functionality including a desktop app, a new version of hashtags and enhanced search and filtering.  The result has been increased user engagement and major content creators getting serious about using this platform.

More politicians, campaigns, and activists groups are showing up on  Threads.  Now may be the time to take a look at getting on.

I'm on there  Threads.net/@rwkarp  and in the last few weeks I went from just a few followers up to 60+.  (Not huge but the right direction).
